@Govindarajan:
For issuance of a fresh passport, Government/Public Sector/Statutory body employees need to submit either Identity Certificate in original as per Annexure "B" or No Objection Certificate (NOC) as per Annexure "M" as an additional document along with the application form. If he/she submits Annexure "B", passport will be issued without police verification and if he/she submits Annexure "M", passport will be issued on post police verification basis. For reissue of passport, Government/Public Sector/Statutory body employees need to submit No Objection Certificate (NOC) as per Annexure "M" as an additional document along with the application form.

Government Employees: Government/Public Sector/Statutory body employees can be issued passport without police verification, if they submit Identity Certificate in original as per Annexure "B" as an additional document along with the application form. They can be issued a passport on post police verification basis, if they submit No Objection Certificate (NOC) (as per Annexure "M") as an additional document along with the application form.

Retired Government Employees: Retired Government employees can be issued a passport on post police verification basis if they submit Pension Payment Order as an additional document along with the application form.

If a Government/Public Sector/Statutory body employee wants to make a major change in name, then he/she has to submit the following additional documents:
** Gazette Notification changing name in applicant's department
** Fresh ID Certificate in changed name
** Deed poll/sworn affidavit as per Annexure "E"

Hence, a leading newspaper cutting is not required to be submitted.
